Chapter 126: After the Concert
After the singing of "My Motherland", the audience applauded wildly, chanting "Sing one more song", and did not want the performance to end like this. Guo Lanying could only sing "Nanniwan" and "Mountains from Water" again, and finally sang "Singing the Motherland" with the audience, and the whole concert ended completely.
The audience walked out contentedly, and almost all of them had a surge of excitement on their faces. Before the concert, many people felt that the tickets were expensive, but at this moment, the vast majority of the audience felt that the money was well spent, or even worth the money. As they walked, they gestured and told their strong feelings in their hearts.
"It's amazing, I've never seen such a wonderful performance, these songs are really good. β
"There are songs of various styles, all of which are very good, and I like "Hometown Clouds" the most. When I listened to this song, it reminded me of the days when I was in the Great Northern Wilderness, and tears flowed out of my eyes. β
"I like "One Cut Plum" the most, this song is very beautifully written, and it is very good, and Li Guyi sings it well. β
Cui Jian and his friends walked out of the stadium along the crowd, and Cui Jian's friends talked excitedly like the rest of the audience. It was the first time they had heard so many completely different styles of music, and many of them sang their hearts, and they all thought that this concert was simply amazing. Only Cui Jian was extremely quiet, as if he had something on his mind.
Someone noticed that something was wrong with Cui Jian's state, so he asked, "Cui Jian, what's wrong with you, why don't you speak?"
Cui Jian raised his head, looked at a few of his friends, and said softly: "I won't play the trumpet in the future, I want to sing." β
When my friends heard this, they were stunned: "Are you kidding?"
"No kidding, I really want to sing. Cui Jian shook his head gently, his eyes shining in the dark, "How good these songs are tonight, they have all been sung to the hearts of the people, I want to sing like them, I want to sing such songs!"
Although Lang Ping and the others are members of the national team, they are actually young girls in their early twenties, no different from ordinary girls. After watching the concert, they reacted in the same way as the general audience. They loved today's show, they loved the songs, they loved the actors who were singing. They knew that the concert planner Xu Wangqiu was Su Bai's boyfriend, so they begged Su Bai to take them backstage to meet the actors. Lang Ping even grabbed Su Bai's hand directly, and couldn't stop begging: "Su Bai, please, please!"
Lang Ping is known as the iron hammer, how strong that hand is, she held Su Bai's hand so hard that she almost didn't crush Su Bai's hand bones. Su Bai was so painful that tears were about to flow out: "I'll take you there! I'll take you there! You let go of me!"
Under the leadership of Su Bai, the girls of the women's volleyball team walked down the stands and walked to the backstage. The security personnel at the scene all knew Su Bai, and she led the way to the women's volleyball girls unimpeded and successfully came to the backstage of the gymnasium.
Xu Wangqiu was discussing with the actors the gains and losses of the performance just now, and summarized the performance just now. This is a characteristic of this era, and it will definitely be summed up after the performance. Xu Wangqiu actually didn't want to do it, his idea was that everyone should celebrate, but whether it was the actors or Gu Jianfen, they all thought that it was necessary to summarize. His arms can't twist his thighs, so he can only do what everyone wants.
Xu Wangqiu saw Su Bai and them coming, said hello to Gu Jianfen and them, and greeted them. It's just that when he saw the tall girls behind Su Bai clearly, he couldn't help but be stunned, hey, isn't this Aunt Lang Ping and the women's volleyball team, why are they here? He said in surprise: "Su Bai, why are you with Lang Ping, ah, no, you are with the women's volleyball team?"
Su Bai smiled and said, "I know them, let's watch the show together, so let's come and take a look." β
Lang Ping heard Xu Wangqiu call out his name, and said curiously, "Do you know me?"
Xu Wangqiu smiled when he heard this, thinking that you would not ask this question in two or three years, who in Chinese does not know the iron hammer, and said with a smile: "Of course I know, I am a loyal supporter of the women's volleyball team." I don't just know you, I know them. He pointed to several other women's volleyball girls and said, "This is Yang Xi, this is Chen Zhaodi, this is Zhang Rongfang, and this is Zhou Xiaolan." β
The girls of the women's volleyball team know that Xu Wangqiu is the director of "Hoe Rape" and the screenwriter of "Mom Loves Me Once", and in their eyes, Xu Wangqiu is a great talent and a very powerful character. I didn't expect such a character to be their supporters, not to mention how happy they were.
Lang Ping said with a smile: "We also know that you are Xu Wangqiu, the director of "Hoe Rape", the screenwriter of "Mom Loves Me Again", and we also know that you and Su Bai are two people!"
Xu Wangqiu ignored the ridicule of the women's volleyball girl, reached out and touched his pocket, and found that he had no paper and pen on him, so he borrowed a pen and notebook from Gu Jianfen and handed them to Lang Ping: "I really like the women's volleyball team, please sign for me." β
Lang Ping was a little proud when he saw Xu Wangqiu signing his autograph, and asked, "What did you sign?"
Xu Wangqiu smiled: "Just write two words of blessing casually." β
Lang Ping thought for a while and wrote: "I wish Comrade Xu Wangqiu more and better movies." After Lang Ping signed, other girls in the women's volleyball team also signed Xu Wangqiu: "I wish Comrade Xu Wangqiu a better movie than "Hoe Rape"!", "I wish Comrade Xu Wangqiu's film to win an international award." "I wish Comrade Xu Wangqiu to create more and better works. β
The girls of the women's volleyball team signed Xu Wangqiu's name, and they also took out pens and notebooks, and handed them to Xu Wangqiu: "You can sign us too, we all like your movie very much." β
Xu Wangqiu didn't think about it, and wrote in his notebook: "May the Chinese women's volleyball team become the world's No. 1 as soon as possible!"
That night, the calls from the Peking Evening News and the Workers' Daily continued to be called, and people called one after another to tell them how excited they were after watching the performance. Since there was no recording equipment, the comrades who answered the phone could only listen to the audience's testimonials and repeat them, and others would record them to record the audience's thoughts. In an age where calls can only be made from public telephones, this is unbelievable.
On the morning of the next day, the "Peking Daily" carried a large report on the grand performance of the whole concert and the audience's reaction with the title of "The Large-scale Concert "Into the New Era" Received Enthusiastic Praise".
The article wrote: "In order to express the praise of reform and opening up and express the love for the party and the country, the theme concert of 'Entering the New Era' was staged at the Capital Sports Institute on the evening of the 15th. The concert not only performed classic songs such as "My Motherland" and "People Say Shanxi is a Good Scenery", but also performed newly composed songs such as "Into the New Era", "Loyal to the Country" and "When That Day", fully demonstrating the positive spiritual outlook of the people and their vision for the future, and expressing the strong aspirations of the Chinese people. β
Now unlike the Internet era, you can write posts and tweets on the Internet to express your feelings, and the most common form for the audience to express their love for the program or the work is to write a letter and write all their feelings into the letter.
"As a music lover, after seeing the introduction of the concert in the "Peking Daily", I came to the Capital Gymnasium from Nancheng with excitement and excitement. However, due to the large number of people, I didn't get a ticket, so I finally bought a 'flying ticket' for one yuan and five dimes, and I was lucky enough to attend this concert. But it's all worth itβ β "
"I had the pleasure of watching the New Era Concert today, and I am writing this letter with great excitement. This performance is so exciting, the song is so good, it is really a phoenix singing laurel tree, and the pearls fall on the jade plate...... In particular, Ren Yan's song "Young Friends Come to Meet" inspired the infinite enthusiasm of young people, and I listened to it at that time, stood up from my seat, and applauded not only the young singer, but also these lyricists and composers......"
"This concert is really good, regardless of the repertoire, the method, the faction, it is diverse. Su Xiaoming's essence is very good, but judging from the feedback of the majority of the audience (including insiders and laymen), the effect is not ideal...... The holding note of the song is sung too short and hard, and there is no toughness at all, as if it is a tone that has not been sung well, and it should be pondered and processed. It is better not to recite the middle paragraph of "The Night of the Military Port", and ask the composer to write a playful middle section or use a lyrical interlude. Otherwise, the song seems too reluctant. This is my subjective view, we expect the new stars to rise and shine brightly, and we must also point out their shortcomings realistically so that they can grow stronger......"
Some audience members still complained in the letter that the ticket price was too high, which was higher than when the Boston Orchestra performed in China. But complaining is complaining, the concert tickets have long been sold out, and now there is no place to buy tickets if you want to. Due to the difficulty of finding a ticket, there was a "flying ticket", which was later called a scalper ticket, and the highest ticket price was fried to five yuan a piece.
For ordinary viewers, if they can't buy tickets, they either go to buy flying tickets or don't watch them. However, there is no shortage of people with connections and connections in Beiping City, and these people are looking for acquaintances and want to get tickets for concerts.
Since I went to work in the morning, Nortel's phone has not stopped, and there are constant calls coming in, and the content of the call is almost the same, I heard that your concert is doing well, help me get a few tickets. Even Wang Lanxi received several phone calls, some from old friends, some from former colleagues, and even from people who were not too familiar with him, all asking him to help get a few concert tickets.
Wang Lanxi had just finished explaining to an old friend of his, hung up the phone, and before he could catch his breath, the phone rang again. He shook his head helplessly, and made up his mind that when he saw Xu Wangqiu, he would definitely scold this kid severely, it was simply too tormenting! He stretched out his hand to answer the phone: "Hello." I'm Wang Lanxi. β
The other end of the phone said: "Lao Wang, Zhou Jianbang!"
Wang Lanxi heard that the other party was Zhou Jianbang, and thought that even the court/hospital ticket was coming to me, this movement was too big, so he said helplessly: "Old Zhou, you don't know, from morning to now, I have received more than a dozen calls." I really can't help it, the concert tickets have long been sold out, and even if I can, I can't change the tickets. β
The other party was stunned when he heard this, and then laughed: "I heard about the concert, but I didn't ask you for tickets." The leaders of the report you wrote on the establishment of a film export company read it and gave important instructions. At half past eight o'clock in the morning of January 22, there was a meeting in the Zhongnanhai screening room to study the possibility of establishing a film export company. β
Wang Lanxi was slightly stunned, joy gushed out from the bottom of his heart like a mountain spring, the report was handed over for more than a month, and there was finally news!
